Chris, fellow sparsers, Bitwise-not is often used to create masks. Unfortunately implicit conversions to longer types may leave the recipient with fewer set bit than he expected, if he started with an unsigned type. It's nice to warn that such constructs are dubious. The guts for the fix are in patch 2. I'm not sure this is the right location for the fix, but the prior logical-not checks are quite closely related, so I bundled them in together. As an aside - while sniffing around that file, I came across a lot of helpers who could have their pointer parameters made const - is there any interest in some const clean-up, or is that unwanted comma-fudging?
